I had some good comebacks on a few of these but I forgot which ones they were.

Ok I’m so old I clearly remember when you didn’t need to use the area code and the first 3 digits of yours or any other number had a name instead of numbers. My home number was Sterling 99139. Still is because my sister bought the family home.

And yes I remember as Budnicks notes above the classy piece of living room furniture dad bought home that had a record player under the lift up panel, speakers and also the AM/FM radio all in one. Clearly remember listening to the Saturday night fights on it. As far as being old - well to this day I remember laying on the living room floor and being awe struck as Cassius Clay beat the hell out of Sonny Liston. It was then I became a life long fan of the greatest boxer to ever grace the ring and also one of the great humanitarians of the century.

I remember when Pontius was a pilot.

Just after that Joan Armatrading told everyone to drop him.

I just want to know, why my clothes only get stuck on the door handle when I'm in a bad mood.​

No intent to change the direction of this thread, but how many of us are familiar with the phrase and meaning of “Old Man Strength”?
My 31yr old son 6’1”, 225lbs reminded me when we shook hands the other day, I had a little fun and clamped down until he yelled, “you and that f’ing old man strength!, knock it off”!
We are getting older, but we still have strength of experience.
(Even though I sit to put my pants on cause I don’t trust my own balance anymore)

There have been times in my life where I've had retard strength.

retard strength
A bear-like power possessed by large, often socially awkward people during times of excitement or anger. Their insurmountable strength is seemingly inconceivable during their normal, relaxed state, but can be accentuated by emotional distress. Though normally quiet and intraverted, don't let their good natured persona fool you. One too many shots may cause Godzilla like devastation, resulting in numerous bone fractures and utter panic caused by bear-like hugs and bone shattering high fives.

I'm not sure who it was, but one of you called this morning to schedule his annual prostate exam.

Wasn't me, but if I had to have one done I'd consider calling you too!

You don't have caller ID?
